The write-up

Bitboard Wallet is a web-based learning platform for onboarding people to Bitcoin and letting everyone interested dive deeper. Besides the core wallet functionality it features a local Blockchain simulator and a collection of short articles on many topics related to Bitcoin. So far Bitboard Wallet supported:

  • Onchain transactions
  • Connecting to external Lightning wallets via NWC
  • Arkade

The purpose of this project is to add basic support for Bark. This is particularly interesting for two reasons:

  • It makes it much easier to compare the different technologies of Arkade and Bark
  • Bark will later be useful to add a more seamlessly integrated support for Lightning to the app
